[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 3249161, member: 5412"] Needles has declared itself a Second Amendment sanctuary city, a first-in-California designation that leaders in this remote desert town see as a first step toward changing the state’s toughest-in-the-nation gun control laws. Needles in easternmost San Bernardino County hugs the Arizona state line and is just miles from the Nevada border. The city of nearly 5,000 is closer to Las Vegas (111 miles) than the 200-mile trek west to the county seat in San Bernardino and closer in worldview to their next-door neighbors in the Silver and Copper states. Gun rights in a state with the most stringent gun control laws in the nation are very important to the people of the Mojave Desert – a message that Needles Mayor Williams wants to send to lawmakers in Sacramento. “The City Council wanted our community to know that we support their Second Amendment rights to keep and bear arms,” Williams said in a statement June 15 after city council members unanimously approved the declaration. “While we recognize that all lawful gun owners are responsible for ensuring they are compliant with state and federal gun laws, we also recognize that the State of California cannot adopt laws that impair the rights guaranteed by the Second Amendment.” [URL]https://www.sacbee.com/news/state/california/article231957578.html[/URL] [/QUOTE]
